    Is Gen 3 just as easy to break into?

    ha - yup, that's always an easy way, but the Gen 2 lock was easy to punch out and get in without breaking glass. There was an aftermarket kit that folks were buying to prevent. Then once inside, there was a fuse they could pull yada yada - anyway, seems like they didn't really address it, which...

    Is Gen 3 just as easy to break into?

    Looking to get back into a Raptor, wondering if they addressed how easy it was to break into and steal, still the same? Also...how's the new 5-link rear suspension?

    Sirius freezing - no sound, etc.

    I think Sirius is malfunctioning, other sources work fine, FM, AM etc. touch sreen response for those sources is normal, sound normal. Sirius on the other hand keeps freezing up. I will start the truck, having left it on a Sirius channel previous drive, the station is still selected, but there...

    TRX goes boom, Raptor saves the day

    FCA (Stellantis) is really good at throwing huge HP in their cars / SUV and now trucks. Look at the Challenger Hellcat, when that came out I think the challenger platform was already 7 years old, now going on 13 years. Is it really really good at straight line quarter mile, hell yes, can it...

    Rock Crawl bent side step

    Stand on it and use a bit of force. I did the same while offroad and it bends back quite easily. Ford should have put rock sliders on these trucks, but of course, we'd have to pay for them either way.

    Twin turbo heat overheating issues?

    I wonder if Dodge tested the TRX in the same way, or they just threw a monster motor in and called it a day? apparently they did.

    Twin turbo heat overheating issues?

    The faster you drive, the more airflow, so just keep it moving. ;)

    Missing the point....

    I want to say the system is called a gyroscope but maybe gimbal is synonymous

    2021 Raptor "What have they done" puke puke puke

    Straight on view is definitely not good, I keep trying to like it but they did something to make it too square-ish and too tall, too flat, something is off proportion-wise. Angled view isn't so bad. I guess this leaves room for them to do a 2023 / 24 refresh and change the front-end a bit.

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    yup, you are right, I built one on RAM site, for the options needed to match Raptor, it's right at 89K. I'm seeing many in the mid to high 90's though, maybe that's ADM. When things finally calm down after the Raptor R is released, it will be well into 2023, then maybe get one at MSRP. I don't...

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    I think it's fine. It takes time to do things right, plus I'm guessing the additional cost for a Raptor R is going to eliminate a lot of people. What is a TRX going for 100K well equipped?

    Height requirement for floor jack - stock Gen II

    You will want this: https://www.harborfreight.com/3-ton-low-profile-super-duty-rapid-pump-floor-jack-yellow-63183.html I don't know the numbers off the top of my head, but any standard jack is not going to lift this truck without additional helpers, which may or may not be dangerous. Best to...

    POLICE got me again......

    Jumping in late here - but reading just the initial ask, which was for someone to provide him a photo so he could show the Police or Courts a picture that he removed the tint, why not just grab a picture off the internet? I mean if that's all they wanted, which is an extremely low bar, I would...

    Light wiring question

    simple butt connectors work just fine, wrap in electrical tape afterwards.

    GEN 2 TPMS - what the hell

    is it possible the system learns on its own? I rotated my tires 2 or 3 weeks ago, at home. Did not perform any process to relearn. The fronts are manually measured at 37 psi, rears at 33, and that is what the Raptor's system shows.

    Street traction problem with open rear??

    I haven't had any issues...and I drive it like I stole it all the time. Oh, sorry, that is on dry pavement. Wet, I just drive normal, but yeah, the beauty of 4A is that it is like any other SUV 4WD system at that time, safe for dry or wet. Unlike most normal trucks, which feature a 4WD mode...

    “Not Used” and “Not Used (spare) (Raptor)” Fuse Locations

    Sorry, curious about the power running boards, in what way? They are a standard feature in F-150 Platinum and Limited, if that's what you are curious about. Not on a Raptor, I think due to it being more of a street queen type of an option, wouldn't fair well off road.

    Newb Question: S-cab vs. S-crew?

    resale might be a factor, probably easier to sell a Screw, if you ever plan to sell it.

    Well, I'm of no help but you've done some good sleuthing here. Sorry about your balls.

    Weird Dent

    Yeah, that is not what I was referring too, maybe a paint defect. I'm no paint expert, so I can't give you definitive answer. I assume you bought it new, if so, I suppose you can see what the dealer says they can do for you.

    Diarrhea sound on raptor. after cold start Please watch

    You need to private message @FordTechOne he'll point you in the right direction. but I'm 95% sure, not cam phaser issue.

    Diarrhea sound on raptor. after cold start Please watch

    I thought bad cam phaser sound was only at startup and went away after warm, but IDK. Your saying the truck can sit overnight, you start it and don't hear the bad cam phaser, only if you do a WOT pull?
